AI giants are sounding the alarm, urging Congress to act before dangerous tech slips through the cracks. With AI now capable of designing genetic material, the risk of biological weapons becoming easier to build is real—and accelerating. Companies can “print” DNA sequences that once required labs and expertise, and AI is making it even simpler for bad actors to bypass security checks. Past incidents, like recreating viruses with mail-order DNA, show this isn’t sci-fi. While some screening exists and a Senate bill pushes for universal oversight, AI can still generate sequences that evade detection. The solution? AI firms must lead by implementing their own safeguards—because the tools built for good must be protected from misuse.
